    Top photo is from the goldberg Millennia Sale, bottom is from the Polish auction house. Scratches on old holder which will likely be replaced.

    I finally had a chance to look at this on my pc rather than a phone.....a big screen certainly does that piece proper justice. I agree with doppeltaler - you can get lost in the details of the reverse. You better send that to me for safe keeping.
